The article considers the influence of the wind rose on the lands adjacent to the Karazhyra coal mine on the territory of the Semipalatinsk nuclear test site. It is assumed that the influence of the wind rose is an important environmental factor in the cadastral value of land contaminated with radionuclides. The purpose of the study is to assess the impact of secondary pollution by technogenic radionuclides on the territory adjacent to the nuclear test site and to determine the movable boundaries of such pollution. The impact assessment was carried out on the basis of an analysis of the factors contributing to the spread of pollution at the mine itself and along the road used to deliver contaminated coal to Semey. As a result, the types of work affecting the radiation situation in the study area were identified, the main directions of air flows in the field area were determined. The conclusion is made about the influence of the situation on the methodology for performing geodetic works. Requirements for the accuracy of determining the boundaries of contaminated land plots are proposed.

The Creation

The article discusses the creation of a planning-high-altitude justification at the Karazhyra coal mine, located on the territory of the Semipalatinsk nuclear test site. The purpose of creating such a justification is to monitor the boundaries of the spread of land pollution by radionuclides, which is caused by the wind transfer of coal dust. The factors that contribute to the spread of pollution are given, both at the mine and along the highway, along which contaminated coal is delivered to industrial enterprises, as well as to the population of private houses. It is indicated that for the development of the planning and altitude justification and the creation of boundary plans can be used ground and satellite technologies for the production of geodetic works. The root-mean-square error of determining the boundaries of contamination with radionuclides of land plots and coal mines should not be more than 0.50 m. In this regard, it is urgent to develop a methodology for performing geodetic works and create boundary plans in the area of radionuclide contamination of land plots.

Permissible Levels

This paper presents the results of complex radioecological monitoring of the territories, which are situated near the Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site, East Kazakhstan region.  The radiometric measurements showed that the concentration of radon and beta particles are below the permissible levels. EROA values of a radon in rooms fluctuates from 44 Bq/m3 to 195 Bq/ m3. The measured values of fluency of betta-particles in all the studied points are less than 10 freq/ min*cm2. A specific activity of radionuclides, such as Am-241, Cs-137 and  Pu – 239/240  in soils, plant, water, meat and milk were evaluated.

I first heard of “radioactive coal” in the summer of 2012, when I was living in the small village of Koyan, one of many settlements in Eastern Kazakhstan that hosted the Soviet-era Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site. A scandal over the sale of radioactive coal had erupted in the fall of 2011 when local media began reporting on a train from Kazakhstan carrying more than eight thousand tons of it (in 130 wagons) to a heating plant in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. Upon discovering that radioactivity in the shipment was eight times higher than normal, Kyrgyz authorities had it removed from the Bishkek's central heating plant. Rather than discarding it, they put it to use elsewhere, including in the heating stoves of more than one orphanage, a kindergarten, and several rural schools. When media covered this development, public outcry forced Kyrgyz politicians to demand that the coal be returned to Kazakhstan; allegations of corruption and arrests of Kyrgyz officials ensued. Political wrangling over responsibility and refunds meant that negotiations between Kazakh and Kyrgyz authorities took more than a year to complete. Finally, Kazakhstan allowed the coal to be returned.
